    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une étude longitudinale, par séries, est effectuée pour déterminer les activités en phosphatases acide et alcaline dans les os longs et la mandibule. Le pH optimum des deux enzymes se situe respectivement à 10.2 et 5.4 pour les phosphatases alcaline et acide. Des portées synchronisées de rats sont sacrifiées, à raison d'une portée par jour, en commençant au premier jour jusqu'au 25ème jour post-partum. Les spécimens sont analysés en ce qui concerne leur concentration en protéine et leur activité en phosphatases. Une activité de types élevée et faible est observée au niveau du tissu osseux, ainsi qu'un type d'activité faible en phosphatase alcaline, au cours des pics d'activité en phosphatase acide, et vice-versa. Les pics observés suggèrent une concordance entre l'activité en phosphatase et les autres changements biochimiques de la croissance osseuse, au niveau de la matrice organique et la formation minérale. Une étude séparée, tenant compte de la possibilité d'une activité enzymatique rythmique, suggère l'existence d'un rythme diurne court chez les animaux jeunes.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Eine serienmäßige Longitudinaluntersuchung wurde unternommen, um die Aktivitäten der alkalischen und sauren Phosphatase in den Röhrenknochen und den Mandibulae von Ratten zu bestimmen. Das pH-Optimum der beiden Enzyme wurde für die alkalische Phosphatase bei 10,2 und für die saure Phosphatase bei 5,4 ermittelt. Synchronisierte und randomisierte Würfe wurden getötet, 1 Wurf pro Tag vom 1.–25. Tag post partum. Die Proben wurden auf ihren Proteingehalt und ihre Phosphatasenaktivität untersucht. Ein Muster niedriger und hoher Aktivität konnte in beiden Knochengeweben beobachtet werden, sowie ein Muster von niedriger Aktivität der alkalischen Phosphatase bei Spitzenwerten der sauren Phosphatase und umgekehrt. Die beobachteten Spitzenwerte lassen einen Zusammenhang vermuten zwischen der Phosphatasenaktivität und den anderen biochemischen Veränderungen, die im wachsenden Knochen auftreten, d. h. Bildung der organischen Matrix und des Minerals. Eine getrennte Untersuchung, welche sich mit der Möglichkeit rhythmischer Merkmale der Enzymaktivität befaßte, läßt vermuten, daß in den ersten Tagen ein schwacher Tagersrhythmus bestehen könnte.
    Notes: Abstract A serial longitudinal study was undertaken to determine the activities of the alkaline and acid phosphatases in the long bones and mandibles. The optimum pH of the two enzymes was recorded at 10.2 and 5.4 for alkaline and acid phosphatase, respectively. Synchronized and randomized litters of rats were killed, 1 litter daily, starting at day 1 to day 25 post partum. Samples were analyzed for protein concentration and activity of the phosphatases. A pattern of low and high activity was observed in both bony tissues, as well as a pattern of low alkaline phosphatase activity during acid phosphatase activity peaks, and vice versa. The observed peaks suggest a correspondence between phosphatase activity and the other biochemical changes occurring in the growing bone, i.e., organic matrix and mineral formation. A separate study, considering the possibility of rhythmic features of the enzyme activity suggests that there may be a small diurnal rhythm at an early age.

    Notes: Minute amounts of white or brown adipose tissue can be localized in situ within seconds by covering the organ surfaces with an alkaline solution of dithizon (diphenylthiocarbazone) in alcohol and water. The adipose tissues stain deep green, while the other organs remain unstained, or appear in various shades of pink and red. This technique has been successfully applied to various groups of vertebrates (mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fishes), and it works in fresh, in deep frozen and in formalin-fixed specimens. It fails after tissue fixation in mercuric chloride-containing fluids. In vitro studies show that the staining reaction is due to (1) a preferential solubility of small amounts of dithizon in adipose tissue lipids, and (2) the development of a green color, which appears when dithizon dissolves in lipids or organic solvents.

    Description: Remote sensing of night light emissions in the visible band offers a unique opportunity to directly observe human activity from space. This has allowed a host of applications including mapping urban areas, estimating population and GDP, monitoring disasters and conflicts. More recently, remotely sensed night lights data have found use in understanding the environmental impacts of light emissions (light pollution), including their impacts on human health. In this review, we outline the historical development of night-time optical sensors up to the current state of the art sensors, highlight various applications of night light data, discuss the special challenges associated with remote sensing of night lights with a focus on the limitations of current sensors, and provide an outlook for the future of remote sensing of night lights. While the paper mainly focuses on space borne remote sensing, ground based sensing of night-time brightness for studies on astronomical and ecological light pollution, as well as for calibration and validation of space borne data, are also discussed. Although the development of night light sensors lags behind day-time sensors, we demonstrate that the field is in a stage of rapid development. The worldwide transition to LED lights poses a particular challenge for remote sensing of night lights, and strongly highlights the need for a new generation of space borne night lights instruments. This work shows that future sensors are needed to monitor temporal changes during the night (for example from a geostationary platform or constellation of satellites), and to better understand the angular patterns of light emission (roughly analogous to the BRDF in daylight sensing). Perhaps most importantly, we make the case that higher spatial resolution and multispectral sensors covering the range from blue to NIR are needed to more effectively identify lighting technologies, map urban functions, and monitor energy use.

    Description: Constraining Earth’s sediment mass balance over geologic time requires a quantitative understanding of how landscapes respond to transient tectonic perturbations. However, the mechanisms by which bedrock lithology governs landscape response remain poorly understood. Rock type influences the size of sediment delivered to river channels, which controls how efficiently rivers respond to tectonic forcing. The Mendocino triple junction region of northern California, USA, is one landscape in which large boulders, delivered by hillslope failures to channels, may alter the pace of landscape response to a pulse of rock uplift. Boulders frequently delivered by earthflows in one lithology, the Franciscan mélange, have been hypothesized to steepen channels and slow river response to rock uplift, helping to preserve high-elevation, low-relief topography. Channels in other units (the Coastal Belt and the Franciscan schist) may experience little or no erosion inhibition due to boulder delivery. Here we investigate spatial patterns in channel steepness, an indicator of erosion resistance, and how it varies between mélange and non-mélange channels. We then ask whether lithologically controlled boulder delivery to rivers is a possible cause of steepness variations. We find that mélange channels are steeper than Coastal Belt channels but not steeper than schist channels. Though channels in all units steepen with increasing proximity to mapped hillslope failures, absolute steepness values near failures are much higher (∼2×) in the mélange and schist than in Coastal Belt units. This could reflect reduced rock erodibility or increased erosion rates in the mélange and schist, or disproportionate steepening due to enhanced boulder delivery by hillslope failures in those units. To investigate the possible influence of lithology-dependent boulder delivery, we map boulders at failure toes in the three units. We find that boulder size, frequency, and concentration are greatest in mélange channels and that Coastal Belt channels have the lowest concentrations. Using our field data to parameterize a mathematical model for channel slope response to boulder delivery, we find that the modeled influence of boulders in the mélange could be strong enough to account for some observed differences in channel steepness between lithologies. At the landscape scale, we lack the data to fully disentangle boulder-induced steepening from that due to spatially varying erosion rates and in situ rock erodibility. However, our boulder mapping and modeling results suggest that lithology-dependent boulder delivery to channels could retard landscape adjustment to tectonic forcing in the mélange and potentially also in the schist. Boulder delivery may modulate landscape response to tectonics and help preserve high-elevation, low-relief topography at the Mendocino triple junction and elsewhere.

    Description: In geodynamically active areas, spatio-temporal variations in rock uplift can provide key insights into the processes responsible for the evolution of topography. The Central Anatolian Plateau (CAP) southern margin experienced a rapid rock-uplift pulse with maximum rates of 3.5 m/kyr during the Quaternary, based on marine sediments dated to the middle Pleistocene that are now located at 1500 m.a.s.l. Fluvial landscapes record elements that reflect temporal and spatial variations in rock-uplift rates, such as the normalized river steepness index, which is affected by rock-uplift rate, the erodibility of the underlying rock, and climate. Following the calibration of river profiles for an erosion coefficient value, which can be done using independent data (in our case, uplifted marine terraces and dated marine sediments), river profiles can be inverted for the rock-uplift histories that created them. Here, we demonstrate how it is possible to define the spatio-temporal rock-uplift history of the CAP southern margin by quantitative analysis of river profiles.
